iCloud Keychain is ‘good enough’ if you are 100% in the Apple ecosystem, but there’s a lot it could do better, including password sharing as well as password export. Most glaringly there’s no support for storing additional meta data alongs

I noticed this problem a while ago when I wanted to use DockerHub’s automated image build service. Per the docs https://docs.docker.com/docker-hub/builds/link-source/ you need to grant DockerHub access to yo

Interesting point.... sometimes it’s a benefit, sometimes a deficit. I’ve had the experience searching google maps for bagels, and it returns donut shops. Yes, they are both bakeries, but I wanted bagels, not donuts. In this case I don’t

Actually, it’s not. The archiving standard is PDF/A, which is (as I understand it) much more structured and standardized.

Take a look at Visual Studio Codespaces: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/services/visual-studio-co... Despite the name, it's hosted VSCode, not Visual Studio.

Or, just parallelize the entire build. eg, if you have four build servers, you could kick off a build every hour. Easy using VM's, trivial in the cloud.

It seems like the simple answer to this is to tip out-of-band directly to the person (e.g, cash, venmo, etc).

There needs to be a distinction at the api & permissions level between course and fine geolocation. My weather app doesn't need to know my exact address... location within a half mile or mile would be fine. Similarly with "g
